Drupal almost loaded.. 'Access Denied'

I've almost got drupal up and running...
I actually got the index to load but i get an 'Access Denied' error in the body of the page.
I can see the login on the right side but it doesn't work.
Maybe I need to provide more details?
someone please help, i really need all of this to come together and i'm getting rather nervous due to time constraints..
Thanks in advance for anyone who gives me some of thier time.
